Hi! I got into the dual degree program as well and I'm choosing to go in the fall. I think you're right about the dual degree offering more career prospects than just Parsons degree, so I guess in a sense the degree would end up paying for itself. In terms of paying for tuition, did you apply for financial aid? If not, I think there's still time to do that and you may be able to get some money to offset the costs. Also, if you're planning on doing a PhD afterwards, there's usually no charge (in the United States) for that and if you have taken out loans, they are paused for the duration of your time at school. I think with that you might have a lot of leeway in terms of paying off the tuition in the short and long term.
